I don't believe in destiny. You're right. We got choices in life. I mean, if destiny is real, then that's just cruel. If you're a beggar destined to be millionaire, you'll just have to sit and sleep and you'll be a millionaire. While, on the other hand, if you're destined to be a junk, no matter how much effort you put to your projects, you will always be a loser! Destiny is not real. What are the choices for if you have actually no rights to choose because what will happen is already "set up". We choose what we want and we should be careful because our decisions will shape our future. If you want to be successful, do something to be successful. If you're not interested in doing something to be successful, don't ever expect you'll be successful. We choose who we want to be and we lead our own ways. Don't let opportunities just come by but grab them. We shape our own lives!

I second that notion. I am a great believer of being the product of one's choice or decision. You control your own life. God plays a role each of the day in your life but the major role is in your hands. You hold the key to your success and failure, love and loss, happiness and misery and a whole lot more on the basket that at most times we see unnoticed.

I agree with you partly.cause i think success is composed of luck and effort.A person stives for success ,but the result may not what she or he wants.so the luck here can do something.

It is always said, the best way to reach our destiny and our future is to create it.

10 years back, I used to laugh at this word. Till that point of time, whatever I wanted I did in my life, I could achieve whatever I wanted. Then things changed ridiculously, I saw the actual face of life, it is like, you are standing in front of tsunami, it will blow you and you will not even know. Today, things have changed 180 degree. Now, I do believe that "Destiny" is something that is written somewhere, no matter who you are and what you are, your destiny decides every single thing in your life. Whether someone believes it or not, it exists. It is like ghost, only those who encounter it, can feel it. I think we as a human being, put in our efforts for something only to satisfy ourself so that even if we do not achieve something, at least we will think that we tried... Actually, right now, I am listening to the song, "I tried so hard..." by LP.

Life mainly depends on the choices that we make everyday. There are such crucial points in our life where the direction we're heading is a total detour or right straight ahead. Destiny is something like a consequence of your past decision. "Life does not depend on what we have(our current situation or circumstance), it's what we do with what we have (how we manage our current situation by making sound and wise decisions). I believe much on right and proper choices than on the line that says "it's my destiny" because we can't blame destiny all the time, the only person we can go back with is ourself. And we can only ask our self "why"? We can't put the blame on our friends, our parents or anyone influential to us, because when we make choices, it's our responsibility to face the consequences. And that's what we call DESTINY! (consequence of our past action/decision)
